You didn’t have to listen to the talking heads at MSNBC, you just had to look at their devastated faces to know how the debate turned out. It was a beautiful thing.

The line of the night that really took hold:

“Trickle Down Government”

I went over to CNN to check out the wake. LOL I don’t know how you folks can stomach MSNBC.

I almost feel sorry for Matthews.

He seems to have some sort of on-air meltdown or unsavory public incident every couple of weeks. He's the Zelda Fitzgerald or Lindsey Lohan of the MSM.

Last night's emotional collapse was truly an overwrought epic.

On most nights watching MSNBC is nausea-inducing, but it is soooo good tonight. They're all weeping tears of impotent rage. heh heh heh

I actually for the first time in a long time tuned into MSDNC just to watch them cry and it was VERY enjoyable..Matthews, Schultz, and Maddow looked like their best friend died last night, and in a way, thats exactly what happened. The whole media persona that Obama is this God like figure who is a genius that they have been shoving down our throats for the last four years was destroyed last night. Everyone saw Obama for the dumb ass that he really is. Without his teleprompter he is just like Clint Eastwood said, an empty chair

Here’s the money line from the editorial:

“Yes, there’s a debate going on in this country, but it’s not at MSNBC. It’s held every night around millions of kitchen tables and it’s about jobs, gasoline and food prices, and a president who worries about the distribution of the golden eggs rather than the economic health of the goose.”

Kind if like “You’re not entitled to your own facts.”

Poor Chrissy! He went from having a tingle run up his leg in 2008 to something warm running down it in 2012. ;o)

Matthews makes people’s skin crawl. Does he drink too much?

Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Willard! What is best in life?
Willard: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women and Chris Matthews.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.

I went to CNN also. Carvil was a trip! Had me laughing pretty hard. I can’t watch MSNBC either. Can’t stand those idiots and watching them makes me feel like I did when I was a kid getting sent to my room for being bad! Thanks but no thanks. I appreciate those that do watch for us though.

I watched MSNBC for about 15 minutes after the debate and was laughing my ass off. These dolts were looking for the Malcolm X side of Obama and got Opie Taylor instead. It was a pathetic display.

Can I suggest something that he might NOT enjoy?

Obama was doomed in this debate! How do you defend being the architect of failure?
